Overview

There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for the carotid body tumor. However, patients who manifested the symptoms before the age of 50 years old, those with a positive family history and those with multiple paragangliomas has been recommended to undergo additional testing.

Screening

  • There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for the carotid body tumor. However, it has been recommended that the following patients should undergo additional evaluations:[1]
    • Patients younger than 50 years of age
    • Patients with a positive family history for paraganglioma
    • Patients with multiple paragangliomas
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Patient with carotid body tumor
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
History, Physical examination, and evaluation of cnotralateral side
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Patients with age < 50 years
Patients with multiple paraganglioma
Patients with a positive family history
 
 
 
The rest of the patients
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
SDHD genetic testing
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Presence of SDHD mutation
 
 
 
 
Absence of SDHD mutation
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
SDHC and SDHB genetic testing
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Presence of SDHC/SDHB mutation
 
 
 
Absence of SDHC/SDHB mutation
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
All the relatives should be evaluated for the presence of paragnaglioma
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
whole-body F-dihydroxyphenylalanine (F-DOPA) positron emission tomography to assess the presence of other paragangliomas
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Presence of other paraganglioma
 
 
 
Absence of other paraganglioma
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
24-hour urine catecholamines and MRI for biochemical screening
 
 
 
surveillance screening every 5 years
